Ezra Miller Reveals Which Flash He Does Not Want In The Solo Movie

When Ezra Miller suits up for his solo superhero venture, the actor won't be totally together. The Flash will feature an amateur version of the speedster. Miller's Flash will be one who is still learning his way through the Speed Force and figuring out how vigilantism works. Of course, fans will be excited to watch Barry Allen navigate those challenges on the big screen, but there's one version of the Flash that fans should not expect to make a cameo.

According to Miller, moviegoers will not get to see a fully-powered iteration of the Flash.

During an interview with IGN, Miller said it was very unlikely that an all-powerful Flash will make it into the DC Extended Universe. "Like, I love this comic 'Kingdom Come' - unbelievable art - and in that The Flash is fully evolved, and you never even see him, right? It's just like a red mist, and there's no crime in [Keystone] City," the actor said. "He protects a whole chunk of the country."

"So that wouldn't make for the most interesting film - you know what I mean? What do we have to learn about that guy? That guy barely exists, right? He's almost one with the Speed Force. So it's interesting to go to the beginning."

Clearly, Miller is familiar with his Flash lore. The actor has been dedicating himself to the iconic hero since being cast in The Flash, and Miller's research for the movie has been intense. Earlier this year, Miller told Collider how he approached researching Barry Allen.

"Fortunately, a lot of that research is extremely fun and involves reading Flash Comics and other comics from the world of DC, The Brave and the Bold, and I'm really interested in the early history and some of my favorite stuff is Silver Age. Even the Golden Age and the Jay Garrick stuff, the original Flash. It's just so fascinating, so endlessly compelling. It's such an incredible set-up for exploration, all these fascinating concepts in physics, in mysticism, in fantasy...he can go anywhere. He's that figure of the DC pantheon who transcends the realms, sort of like Hermes or Mercury before him in the respective Greek and Roman mythologies that the character's (creator) Gardner Fox clearly very much based (him on)."

While much of Miller's research on The Flash has been firsthand, the actor is not afraid to seek advice from outside experts. So, it is a good thing that DC Films CCO and famed comic writer Geoff Johns is around to help him out.

"He's a good guy to have around," Miller said. "He keeps us full of information and he keeps us from making ignorant mistakes that would upset the fans across the world because you pretty much can't get someone with a deeper knowledge of this universe than Geoff Johns."

The Flash is currently set for release on March 16, 2018.
